Inspired by the mum I see most mornings on the school run. Range Rover, personalised plate, leggings tucked into white socks - I’m sure you know the type!

Anyway, personalised number plates - yay or nay?

Yeah I think this is the shein slapper my husband had an affair with. Five kids all in fake brands but she was such a breath of fresh air whilst I cared for our disabled daughter.

We both have one. They’re good in that they are totally clear on what they’re saying name wise. I wasn’t bothered but quite like it now I have one, my husband bought it for my car because he likes them.

There’s nothing wrong with twat as a word.

Its if, in the context of the post, it was used in an aggressive or abusive way. Thats my guess. You can’t just call someone a twat because you don’t agree with their point.

Thanks for clearing that up. I will not type what I'm thinking right now.

Well perhaps if it’s aggressive or abusive it’s better that you didn’t. We can say all sorts of swear words here and it not a problem depending on how they’re used

How on earth do you put t**t in a sentence if it's not calling someone?

100% cringey

I’m mostly concerned with what’s wrong with socks over leggings. 😬

Nothing, if it makes you happy. Much like your choice of number plate.
